    Introduction

    D-Link DPR-2000 User Manual 2

    Introduction

    D-Links DPR-2000 USB Multifunction Print Server provides four USB printer portsfor connection to four USB printers and/or multifunction equipment. It allows you to

    share these connected devices with a group of users on a wired Ethernet network as

    well as an IEEE 802.11 wireless network. The DPR-2000 is designed primarily for

    office use, where a cluster of printers and/or multifunction equipment is deployed in

    a close proximity, such as in an equipment room. Multiple users can connect to

    these printers and or multifunction equipment over the network via the DPR-2000 to

    use these devices printing, scan and fax functions. The DPR-2000 manages the

    flow of print and fax files from network users and delivers the print and fax jobs

    quickly and efficiently. With four USB printer ports, the DPR-2000 eliminates the

    need to buy four separate print servers for each shared printer/multifunction

    equipment, as well as the trouble of separately installing them.

    The DPR-2000 comes with easy to use software compatible with most

    Windows-based networks. Protocol support for TCP/IP, NetBEUI and AppleTalk is

    provided to ensure seamless connection to major networking operating systems.

    In addition to this software, the DPR-2000 also has a built in web configurator that

    allows the administrator to configure it and manage the multiple print queues through

    TCP/IP, using a standard web browser program.

    Comparing with a PC-based print server, the DPR-2000 improves the network

    printing services in the following ways:

    The DPR-2000 manages the print file traffic for all of the connected printers. This

    provides relief for your PC file servers and allows them to be used to their full

    capacity for file access or other network services. On peer-to-peer networks,

    workstations can print directly to the Print Server without increasing the load ofanother workstation or server.

    The DPR-2000 Print Server is portable and cheap compared to a PC-based print

    server. This means youre able to deploy the DPR-2000 in locations that offer

    maximum convenience to users.

    The DPR-2000 provides a PS-Link software utility that enables multiple computers

    to use the print/scan/fax/copy functions of the printers connected to this print

    server. With the PS-Link you can install your printers manufacturer drivers without

    creating a physical USB connection from each printer to your computers. After the

    software provided by your printers manufacturers is installed, using the printers

    scan and fax functions will be exactly the same as how they are described in your

    printers manuals.

    The DPR-2000 provides a PS-Wizard to let you easily add a network printer on

    Windows for traditional TCP/IP printing.

    The DPR-2000 is compatible with the following network operating systems and

    protocols:

    TCP/IP

    UNIX lpr/lpd (HP-UX, SunOS, Solaris, SCO, UnixWare, IBM AIX) Windows

    NT/2000, Windows 95/98SE/ME, Windows XP/Vista, NetWare 5.x NDPS LPR

    D-Link DPR-2000 - User Manual 10

    Check your D-Link web site for the lasted updated list.

    This section will describe the installation steps for a wired Ethernet connection.

    Follow the steps below to avoid any complications during the hardware installation:

    1. Confirm that all the printers that you will connect to the DPR-2000 are operating

    correctly.

    2. When you have confirmed that the printers are operating correctly, switch their

    power OFF.

    3. Confirm that your network is operating normally.

    4. Use a Cat. 5 Ethernet cable, connect the DPR-2000s Ethernet LAN port to an

    Ethernet LAN port of an Ethernet switch or router.

    5. While the printer is turned OFF, connect the USB cables to the printers and then to

    the USB ports on the DPR-2000.

    6. Turn ON the powers of the printers.

    7. Insert the power adapters output plug into the power socket on the rear panel of

    the DPR-2000.

    8. Connect the other end of the power adapter into an AC power outlet. This will

    supply power to the DPR-2000. The blue LED on the DPR-2000's front panel

    should turn ON and this Print Servers self-test will proceed.

    Power ON Self-TestEvery DPR-2000 has been factory-tested to operate properly. When the DPR-2000

    is powered ON, it automatically performs a Self-Test on each of its major

    components. The final result of the Self-Test is signaled by the state of the USB LED

    indicators following the Self-Test. Preliminary to the actual component tests, all LEDindicators are tested to confirm their operation.

    Setting up the DPR-2000

    D-Link DPR-2000 - User Manual 11

    Immediately after power-up, all LEDs should illuminate steadily for several seconds.

    Then the USB LEDs should turn OFF simultaneously. Irregularity of any of the LEDs

    during these LED tests may mean there is a problem with the LEDs themselves.

    The actual component tests immediately follow the LED tests. A normal (no fault)

    result is signaled by simultaneous flashing of the LEDs three times, followed by a

    quiescent state with all LEDs dark.

    If the Self-Test routine traps any component error, then following the LED tests the

    Self-Test will halt and the LEDs will continuously signal the error according to the

    following table. In the event of any such error signal, contact your dealer for

    correction of the faulty unit.

    Disabling Wireless Data Encryption

    Print, fax and scanned files travelling in the air can be protected if you enable

    wireless data encryption. If you disable this encryption, the only benefit is wirelessdata will travel faster between your computers and your Print Server. If you wish to

    disable data encryption, click the Disablebutton.

    WEP Encryption

    WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption is based on the IEEE 802.11 standard

    and uses the RC4 encryption algorithm. WEP provides security by encrypting data

    travelling between your Printer Server and the connected wireless router or access

    point.

    To gain access to a WEP network, you must know the key. The key is a string of

    characters that you create. When using WEP, you must determine the level of

    encryption. The type of encryption determines the key length. 128-bit encryption

    requires a longer key than 64-bit encryption. Keys are defined by entering in a string

    in HEX (hexadecimal - using characters 0-9, A-F) or ASCII (American Standard

    Code for Information Interchange alphanumeric characters) format. ASCII format

    is provided so you can enter a string that is easier to remember. The ASCII string is

    converted to HEX for use over the network. Four keys can be defined so that you

    can change keys easily.

    Do as follows to set up WEP encryption:

    1. Click WEP Encryption.

    2. For the encryption key length, select 64bits or 128bits in the Length field.

    3. For the encryption key string, select the format by clickingASCIIor HEXin the

    6. ForAuthentication Type, select Open System, Shared Key, or Both.

    7. ClickApply Settings to complete, or Cancel to abort and exit.

    WPA/WPA2 Encryption

    WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is a Wi-Fi standard that was designed to improve

    security.WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK uses a passphrase or key to authenticate your

    wireless connection. The key is an alpha-numeric password between 8 and 63

    characters long. The password can include symbols (!?*&_) and spaces. This key

    must be the exact same key entered on your wireless router or access point.

    Do as follows to set up WPA encryption:

    1. Click WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK.

    2. Type in 8 to 63 ASCII or 64 HEX characters for Preshared Key.

    3. ClickApply Settings to complete, or Cancel to abort and exit.

    NOTES:

    - For both WEP and WPA encryptions, it is recommended that you enable encryption

    on your Print Server before your wireless computers.

    - Your wireless signal may degrade when you enable encryption, due to the added

    overhead.

    network name(SSID) and a security key that match those set in the router or access

    point. With WPS, you dont need to do these settings if your router or access pointalso supports WPS. If you have already created a security profile (with or without

    data encryption) in your router or access points, the settings in this profile will be

    applied to your Print Server. Otherwise, WPA-PSK will be used as the data

    encryption method between Print Server and the router or access point.

    Unix/Linux Printing

    Printing Text Files From Unix

    Text files on Unix systems contain lines that end with newline characters, as

    opposed to MS-DOS and Windows-related operating systems that end with a

    carriage return followed by a linefeed. Most printers require a carriage

    return/linefeed pair at the end of each line, making it necessary for some translation

    to be done before Unix text files can be printed on most printers.

    For this purpose, you can define two printers for the same printer port, one that

    prints to the port itself, and one that prints to the port name with_TEXTadded to the

    name. Files printed to the second port will be translated so that the printer has the

    arriage return/linefeed pairs that it needs.

    For example, you could define a printer hp5l that prints to port PS-142634-P1, and

    a printer hp5ltthat prints to port PS-142634-P1_TEXT. Your graphics files could

    then be printed to the hp5lprinter, and raw text files could be printed to the hp5lt

    printer.
